After receiving a very warm welcome, she met with key leaders and heads of various research institutes who have set benchmarks in research on sustainability and model of positioning.
Prof. Koh and Prof. Reaney then continued their trip to Pennsylvania State ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓý. Again a very warm welcome. Prof. Koh and Reaney presented their work to directors and members of the university’s esteemed research institutes related to sustainability research.
